The women, wearing t-shirts with the colors of the Palestinian flag, unfurled a banner which read “How many tons of weapons for so many liters of blood?”

The demonstration came on the same day that Israel and Palestinian groups in Gaza agreed to an open-ended cease-fire, following Israel’s seven-week operation in Gaza.

The women were detained by police. The Liege airport said it would file a complaint against the women, according to the French-language dhnet news website.

An airport spokeswoman told dhnet that no weapons pass through the airport. “This is an unfounded rumor you hear every time there is a spike in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict,” the spokeswoman told the website.
